Product overview
Glucose Oxidase Activity Assay Kit ab219924 uses a simple colorimetric assay to measure glucose oxidase (GOx) activity in cell and tissue extracts, and biological fluids. The assay can be performed in a convenient 96-well or 384-well plate format and is easily adapted to automation without a separation or wash step.
The glucose oxidase assay protocol uses a red probe to monitor glucose oxidase activity, leading to an increase in absorbance that can be easily detected at OD575 nm.
Glucose oxidase assay protocol summary:
- add samples and standards to wells
- add glucose oxidase reaction mix
- analyze every 2-3 mins with a microplate reader in kinetic mode for at least 10-30 mins at 37ºC -
Notes
Glucose oxidase (notatin, GOx, EC 1.1.3.4) is a dimeric enzyme that catalyzes oxidation of beta-D-glucose into hydrogen peroxide and D-glucono-1,5-lactone, which is hydrolyzed to gluconic acid.

Glucose Oxidase Activity Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab219924). Typical glucose oxidase dose response curve. Absorbance was measured on a 96-well clear bottom plate using a SpectraMax microplate reader with path check on. As low as 0.156 mU/mL glucose oxidase activity can be detected after 30 minutes incubation.
